Herbert could be had if they like him. The other two will be difficult to get.Burrow will be a Bengal.
The Fins would have to go winless to get Lawrence. The team won 5 games this year. I doubt they have the record or draft capital to get him.
These QBs are great but the Fins will need to win without these guys.

Wrong. They would not have to go winless to get him. He would simply need to be there when it is their turn to pick.
They have Houston’s first round pick in the 2021 draft as well I believe.Paolo, The Fins have 1 first round pick next year. That's not enough to trade up for Lawrence. I think the Fins will have more talent than they had last season.
Tua is a much more realistic option. Tua when healthy would be the best QB the Fins have had since Marino.
I can’t wait for the Dolphins to draft Tua to watch the Paolo meltdown
I won't have a meltdown if it happens. I will just sit back and watch as the organization spends another lifetime looking for their franchise QB. Of course, the hope is they don't make the mistake of drafting such overrated damaged goods. And, if they do -- that they have an immediate backup plan when they realize the mistake they've made.
I am 100% in the 3rd option. Take him at 5 if medical checks out. Do not trade picks in any scenario. Ideally, I would rather Miami squirrel away picks and unload the farm for Lawrence in 2021. However, I can't see Miami drafting this high again next year and it would take a ton to get up to 1 for that pick.I think there are three ways to look at Tua.
Paolo, you're in the too much of a risk group so stay away group. I can understand your concern.
The other extreme is trade up for him at all costs. Some would even trade multiple picks for a fragile QB. I am not in that group. The most I would trade is a second round pick to move up to 3 or 4. Even if you only get 3 to 5 yrs with him as QB there is a good chance the Fins would win the AFC East if he is healthy.
The other group would only take him at 5 if the medical reports check out.
The Fins have been able to get a close look at both QBs Herbert and Love at Senior Bowl practice. Also, they will play next weekend.
If the Fins don't like any of those options I am fine with Fitzpatrick and Rosen in 2020 then drafting a QB next year.
Have an enjoyable MLK day all.

Top QBs never throw at the combine. They all choose to throw at their school pro days with receivers they know and have worked with. Nice try at that narrative though.Tua won't be throwing at the combine - will instead have a throwing session prior to the draft for teams. Very telling he doesn't want to throw at the combine - let's see how many other events he will skip out on at the combine to hide his obvious flaws and limitations. And hid the fact that he is not as healthy as some want to make it seem with him.

I think they are trying to create a trade market. If I'm the Fins stay put and BPA at 5. Stay the course there and at 18 you can move around if necessary at a cheaper price.More on Tua - the Lions emerging as a potential landing spot and fit, as the Lions are unsure of the health of Matthew Stafford.
